I thought I was going to be done with manual au PAY entry into the database.  If anyone missed it like I did, the stream links are here.

They won’t announce anything before they are actually married. The Sayapocalypse won’t happen again. 

 >>/2559/
Thank you so much.

This may be the most brutal March in WNI history.

It was supposed to be a thanksgiving special show but it looked to me as a normal au Pay show only that with two casters instead of one.

The games were good, very funny.

First one was in connection with WNI's Senchan, they had to guess the hidden words of an idiom. Senchan and Richan got theirs correctly but Yui was wrong.

The idiom was 情けは人の為ならず https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E6%83%85%E3%81%91%E3%81%AF%E4%BA%BA%E3%81%AE%E7%82%BA%E3%81%AA%E3%82%89%E3%81%9A

The second one was guessing a keyword with the help of au Pay app viewers. Yui and Riena picked three viewers who had to post three emojis as hints for them to guess the hidden keyword (Yui and Riena wouldn't be shown the keywords until they wrote down their picks)

Both got correctly "BBQ" and "Urashima Taro"

For the last one they got it wrong the first time (they both picked "marathon") but were given another chance and some hints. They got correctly　"sports day" 運動会

The last one was a long gesture shiritori (shiritori is the Japanese version of word chain) with 14 words (7 for Richan and 7 for Yui), they had to make no mistakes

Richan doing "skip", "smash the watermelon" and Yui doing "vagabond"

Here underrated and overqualified Riena and adorable Yui showed proudly their shirotori results, they got all the words flawlessly

 >>/2563/
> 2022, popular and hot caster Ayame Muto graduated because of a gossip youtuber
> 2024, immensely popular and loved caster Saya Hiyama graduated because WNI was too petty for her (and she had a boyfriend)
> 2024 (December), Nonchan graduating tired of grueling shifts and believing going without an agency in Japan was the way to go
What can be more "brutal" than that? All the young casters graduating at once? Not happening, pal.

> yui and richan confirmed before signing off another special edition in march, maybe with two casters, but seems it will be once a month
Hopefully Michan and Yuiko, or maybe Airin and Momopin, it would be a very sexy special (Yui-Riena is the most wholesome pairing IMHO)

Expect 2 graduations and a marriage

Nothing we hadn't seen before, though no marriage announcement will happen in March.

me shilling endchan https://youtube.com/watch?v=NC0Hluuz19o

Since it's March and probably means graduation, I did a calculation about at which age casters graduated, considering just the ones who leaved on the WeatherNews LiVE era (that started from April, 16th 2018)

https://www.timeanddate.com/date/duration.html
Using link above (including end date in calculation), the oldest caster who graduated were Izumi 1st (30y,6m and 21 days) and Saya 2nd place (30y,5m and 2 days)
The youngest were Rina 1st (25y, 4m and 28 days), Ayame 2nd (25y and 7 months) and Non 3rd (25y, 9m and 5 days)
So, if my calculation could have some truth in it (but I don't think that's a rule about a graduation's age limit) I would add Yui (being close at age 30) to names made by  >>/2532/ (though I think chances of her leaving the company are next to zero)

 >>/2579/
Yui is Airi 2.0, she's very likely not graduating. If anything if she is pregnant she might enter maternity leave, but it has not happened since she announced her marriage so in the end it would be her call, she looks very happy as a WNI caster

WNI offers way more stability than any media company in Japan and TV is living a long but sustained decline

IIRC Rina left because her husband moved to Europe, Ayame was forced to leave because of her marriage, Nonchan was prolly too spoiled or tired of long shifts and early mornings and wanted out before getting stucked

Could you add another metric which is not age but time at the company? Saya joined WNI relatively late in life (age 24 IIRC, most Japanese women graduate from uni aged 22) whereas others like Yui or Nana joined during their senior college year

mi-chan is the love of my life.

She is the greatest caster, and the most wonderful person on this planet.

The day she announces graduation, I will leap from a tall bridge

It has been an honor to witness her broadcasts

 >>/2580/
> Could you add another metric which is not age but time at the company? Sure.... Using the same website for the calculation, it appears like that (In brackets, the age the casters joined the company)
#1 Izumi (22) - 8y/2m/7d
#2 Naoko (23) - 5y/6d/18d
#3 Saya  (24) - 5y/5m/14d
#4 Non   (22) - 3y and 22d
#5 Yukki (24) - 2y/11m/26d
#6 Rina  (22) - 2y/6m/23d
#7 Ayame (23) - 1y/11m/24d
PS:Dates of their first day ever as casters (and Izumi's and Rina's birthday date tapping on their names) taken from Japanese Wikipedia, you'll find it searching for ウェザーニュースキャスター卒業ー覧 (first result)
